See I have no wife or kids, no student loan debt and I make more than that. What did he do, take out a 5yr ARM?


I don't see the point on buying if you are NEVER going to pay it off, that's just a financial burden.

He is likely taking home $3-3,400 a month and at 30 years his mortgage has to be $2,800-3,000.

So best case he lives off $600 a month, worst case he is going into debt each month?
